frozen desires |
Spaces...The clock struck 12.It was 21 November,2010.Ana's birthday.She turned 12. The faint flickering candle light,
added a romantic touch to her feminine figure.Her long unending curls,glowed brown in the dim light.Dressed in white,her favorite colour,she rose from her bed.She quickly crossed the blue pillar,outside her room and headed towards the lawn.She felt free.She opened up her arms,and felt the chills of the midnight air.A sweet smell lingered in the air.The smell of roses.She looked up,as if trying to unearth the mysteries of nature.Glancing steadfastly at the twinkling stars,she tossed her curls.Leaning over the balcony,she was lost in romantic thoughts.For the first time,she felt a sudden rush of emotions.Yes!she was in love.In love with the natural beauty and wild landscapes.Her pleasure was short lived.The door to the lawn flung open.Her aunt,rushed out,and pulled Ana forcibly.Ana shrieked in pain.She struggled to be set free.She was pushed into her room.She heard the door lock.

She had a dream.She dreamt of her family,back in Europe,on a summer afternoon.She dreamt of all the beautiful moments in the countryside.Peace engulfed her.She felt secured.In this vast treacherous world,her dreams were her only solace.Life had turned unbearable,yet she never lost hope.She wanted to live,she wanted to dream on,of the beauty life had to offer her.Ana was brave.She was a survivor of mental and physical pain.A strong feminine figure,who stepped out and braved the atrocities of the world.Perhaps,this is the reason we feel,"dreams are better than reality",because the naked truth is harsh indeed.
that's the irony of life,inspite of this harshness it symbolizes the zeal to live our dream,
